Stew Koontz, It's the Army National Guard. I was in the Air National Guard, which is a part of the Air Force, hence the name.

Armadillo, he just played the part of a private investigator but I bet he could have came up with a more informative and thorough report for me than the one I hired once or the ones I've read about in books.
